Library·Ṛgveda Saṃhitā·5·5.10
अग्न ओजिष्ठम् आ भर द्युम्नम् अस्मभ्यम् अध्रिगो । प्र नो राया परीणसा रत्सि वाजाय पन्थाम् ॥
agna ojiṣṭham ā bhara dyumnam asmabhyam adhrigo | pra no rāyā parīṇasā ratsi vājāya panthām ||
Bring us most mighty splendour thou, Agni, resistless on thy way. With overflowing store of wealth mark out for us a path to strength.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
त्वं नो अग्ने अद्भुत क्रत्वा दक्षस्य मंहना । त्वे असुर्यम् आरुहत् क्राणा मित्रो न यज्ञियः ॥
tvaṃ no agne adbhuta kratvā dakṣasya maṃhanā | tve asuryam āruhat krāṇā mitro na yajñiyaḥ ||
Ours art thou, wondrous Agni, by wisdom and bounteousness of power. The might of Asuras rests on thee, like Mitra worshipful in act.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
त्वं नो अग्न एषां गयम् पुष्टिं च वर्धय । ये स्तोमेभिः प्र सूरयो नरो मघान्य् आनशुः ॥
tvaṃ no agna eṣāṃ gayam puṣṭiṃ ca vardhaya | ye stomebhiḥ pra sūrayo naro maghāny ānaśuḥ ||
Agni, increase our means of life, increase the house and home of these, The men, the princes who have won great riches through our hymns of praise.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
ये अग्ने चन्द्र ते गिरः शुम्भन्त्य् अश्वराधसः । शुष्मेभिः शुष्मिणो नरो दिवश् चिद् येषाम् बृहत् सुकीर्तिर् बोधति त्मना ॥
ye agne candra te giraḥ śumbhanty aśvarādhasaḥ | śuṣmebhiḥ śuṣmiṇo naro divaś cid yeṣām bṛhat sukīrtir bodhati tmanā ||
Bright Agni, they who deck their songs for thee have horses as their meed. The men are mighty in their might, they whose high laud, as that of heaven, awakes thee of its own accord.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
तव त्ये अग्ने अर्चयो भ्राजन्तो यन्ति धृष्णुया । परिज्मानो न विद्युतः स्वानो रथो न वाजयुः ॥
tava tye agne arcayo bhrājanto yanti dhṛṣṇuyā | parijmāno na vidyutaḥ svāno ratho na vājayuḥ ||
O Agni, those resplendent flames of thine go valorously forth, Like lightnings flashing round us, like a rattling car that seeks the spoil.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
नू नो अग्न ऊतये सबाधसश् च रातये । अस्माकासश् च सूरयो विश्वा आशास् तरीषणि ॥
nū no agna ūtaye sabādhasaś ca rātaye | asmākāsaś ca sūrayo viśvā āśās tarīṣaṇi ||
Now, Agni, come to succour us; let priests draw nigh to offer gifts; And let the patrons of our rites subdue all regions of the earth.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
त्वं नो अग्ने अङ्गिर स्तुत स्तवान आ भर । होतर् विभ्वासहं रयिं स्तोतृभ्य स्तवसे च न उतैधि पृत्सु नो वृधे ॥
tvaṃ no agne aṅgira stuta stavāna ā bhara | hotar vibhvāsahaṃ rayiṃ stotṛbhya stavase ca na utaidhi pṛtsu no vṛdhe ||
Bring to us, Agni, Angiras, lauded of old and lauded now, Invoker! wealth to quell the strong, that singers may extol thee. Be near us in fight for our success.
Translated by Ralph T. H. Griffith (1896)
